Welcome

I am addicted to cooking and baking. I love to find and make delicious recipes. Sometimes I create my own and I post them here. Other times I find a recipe and adapt it. I have posted those recipes here as well. Enjoy.

5 cups sliced strawberries
1 cup strawberry/kiwi juice (optional – substitute water)
1 can (15.25 oz) crushed pineapple, well drained
1  (10 oz.) package mini marshmallows
¼   cup whipping cream, whipped (maybe less whipping cream…just make sure the salad does not get too runny)
¾ cup sour cream

Directions:
Prepare the day before serving: To make gelatin: Pour the strawberry gelatin powder into  a very large mixing bowl.  Use the speed-set method to dissolve the gelatin.  Mix 3 cups boiling water into the gelatin.  In a separate bowl or measuring cup, Add ice to 1 cup water and 1 cup strawberry kiwi juice to make 2 ½  cups ( of cold liquid – total of 5 ½ cups of liquid including the boiling water).  Stir into gelatin until slightly thickened.  Remove any unmelted ice.
